书籍描述

Erik Larson’s latest work of narrative nonfiction is DEAD WAKE: THE LAST CROSSING OF THE LUSITANIA, which became an immediate New York Times bestseller. His saga of the Chicago World’s Fair of 1893, THE DEVIL IN THE WHITE CITY, was a finalist for the National Book Award, and won an Edgar Award for fact-crime writing, and lingered on various NYT best-seller lists for the better part of a decade. Hulu plans to adapt the book for a limited TV series, with Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese as executive producers. Erik’s IN THE GARDEN OF BEASTS, about America’s first ambassador to Nazi Germany and his daughter, has been optioned by Tom Hanks for development as a feature film.

His next book, THE SPLENDID AND THE VILE: A SAGA OF CHURCHILL, FAMILY, AND DEFIANCE DURING THE BLITZ, due out in early spring 2020, is a story of geopolitical brinksmanship during Churchill’s first year as prime minister, but also an intimate domestic drama, set against the backdrop of Churchill’s prime-ministerial country house, Chequers, and his “full-moon home,” Ditchley, where Churchill, his family, and his “Secret Circle” convene when the moon is in its brightest phases and the bombing threat is highest.

Erik is a former features writer for The Wall Street Journal and Time. His magazine stories have appeared in The New Yorker, The Atlantic Monthly, Harper's and other publications.

He has taught non-fiction writing at San Francisco State, the Johns Hopkins Writing Seminars, the University of Oregon, and the Chuckanut Writers Conference, and has spoken to audiences from coast to coast. A former resident of Seattle, he now lives in Manhattan with his wife, a neonatologist and author of the nonfiction memoir, ALMOST HOME, which, as Erik puts it, "could make a stone cry." They have three daughters in far-flung locations and professions.

On Winston Churchill's first day as prime minister, Hitler invaded Holland and Belgium. Poland and Czechoslovakia had already fallen, and the Dunkirk evacuation was just two weeks away. For the next twelve months, Hitler would wage a relentless bombing campaign, killing 45,000 Britons (30,000 of them Londoners) and destroying two million homes. It was up to Churchill to hold the country together and persuade President Franklin Roosevelt that Britain was a worthy ally--that she was willing to fight to the end.

##作者一贯的写作方式,通过历史人物留下的笔记/记录还原出历史事件中的细节,用小说的笔法书写出来。虽然看多了之后有一定的倦怠感,但是仍然不失为一篇佳作。最让人感慨的莫过于珍珠港事件传到英国,让苦苦等待美国加入战局的英国人看到了希望。顿时让人想到重庆人民在珍珠港之后弹冠相庆的辛酸和无奈

##只能當花邊新聞看,是作者較差一本。

##第一次听有声书,觉得这本太合适了——既是很平实的历史又有戏剧性,而且朗读得非常好,把丘吉尔轻微的lisping都学出来了。最后附上1941年美国参战后丘吉尔在白宫的演讲录音,也是平时看书不会有的彩蛋。至于内容,历史部分非常浅显(也因此很适合听),有趣的是丘吉尔和他身边的人的性格和日常,以及Blitz的阴影下不懈的生活,这就是标题中的 the splendid
